2023 86th Spring Juried Exhibition
Our 86th Spring Juried Exhibition was held at Hopkins Center for the Arts March 2-April 1, 2023. The opening reception on Thursday, March 2 was well attended and very festive! HCA provided a nice spread of food with a cash bar. Jim Clark, Visual Arts Manager of HCA and our juror, did a fine job talking about the show and the awarding winning artworks. There were 75 entries and 52 accepted works in the show. Below are the award winners.
